Library – Qbrio

This site is a prototype; speed and performance may vary.

Draw inspiration from moments that work.

This Frisson Library lets you search 10,000+ moments that each moved multiple listeners to chills, using a set of three search filters.

Genre filter

Search over 30 genres, from Top Charts to Soundtracks to other genres like World music

Pattern filter

Search for moments that use certain of the nine structural and acoustic frisson techniques

Position filter

Search for songs of a certain length or based on where a frisson moment occurs in a song

Moments are drawn from 7 years of public data, combining unprompted (e.g. Soundcloud and Youtube comments) and directly crowdsourced listener annotations. Each moment is then tested by in-house qBrio listening teams designed to vary by age, gender, and other demographics.
